I was diagnosed with diabetes, high blood pressure and sleep apnea. My primary physican recommended weight loss procedure. He first recommended the lap band. I waited for about 7 months because I wanted to research and look at other options. After my beautiful god-daughter, Tina, had the gastric sleeve done, she encouraged me and so I returned to Dr. George Woodman and he did my procedure.
